I teach watercolor painting and this painting is a result of an exercise that I am going to assign my students tomorrow. This painting was done with only two colors, burnt sienna and ultramarine blue. Most paintings fail because of the incorrect use of values. This painting is all values, yet it still has color .. Not as much color as it could, but the lack of color gives the painting it's drama.
